ok here's my problem, I keep on bottle of B5 at work, and one at home. I ran out at work and ran to the mall and picked up "Nu-Life Timed Pantothenic Acid", I've been taking Swiss Natural Sources for the past 2 months and still have a bottle at home.

Now I'm taking 3 Swiss tablets in the morning, 3 Nu-Life at work and 3 Swiss before bed. I'm only doing this until the Swiss runs out, then I'll buy Nu-Life for now on.

My question is, has anyone who's switched B5 ever used multiple brands at once? Would this make the treatment less effective? I'm only doing this till I'm out of Swiss Natural btw.

One more question, I thought the 1000mg swiss tablets were big, these Nu-life tablets are monsters, much much bigger (still 1000mg), on the package it says "timed released pantothenic acid in a non-medicinal base of herbal extracts". No where does it say what these herbal extracts are.. I'm assuming it's safe... am I right? Would this help explain why the tablets are so much bigger? They also aren't white like the Swiss tablets, they're sort of a golden brown with varying degrees of darkness and lightness, almost like marble... Any help?
